More About The MG Majestor
Exterior
The MG Majestor has a bold and rugged design. At the front, it features a large rectangular grille with a gloss black finish, flanked by vertically stacked LED projector headlights and slim LED DRLs placed just below the bonnet. The grille also houses the MG logo, along with the ADAS radar and front parking sensors. The bumper gets a silver skid plate, adding to its tough look.
From the side, the Majestor gets blacked-out pillars, ORVMs, and thick body cladding. It rides on 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, which fit well within the large wheel arches. You can take a look at the Majestor in more detail in our image gallery.
At the rear, the Majestor comes with a wide connected LED taillight setup and a large windshield. The tailgate features ‘Morris Garages’ lettering, ‘Majestor’ badging, and a ‘4WD’ badge. The rear bumper is tall and rugged, finished with a silver skid plate and dual exhaust tips.
